Just wanted to say Hello
The last 5 weeks have been a blur - diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer totally out of the blue.
We are still in shock but slowly coming to terms - started hormone and targeted therapy as surgery is not an option.
So far - treatment is tolerable
Next CT in 8 weeks will be our first milestone

Hi I’ve been diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, I’ve had Sabr radiotherapy which at the moment I don’t know what effect it has had, it’s travelled to my spine and hip. It’s scary and when the radiotherapy form says palliative care it scares the life out of you!!! But I’m being positive and try not to think too far ahead I’m taking Letrozole, which has its side effects , but it’s the not knowing what comes next which is the killer
